heir to the red devil

Chapter 690 Suspense Resurrected?

"Hello, audience friends, this is BT Sport, I'm your old friend Trike, and it's my old partner Nori who is explaining the game with me today."

"This game is the second round of the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Manchester United played against Roma at home. The score of the two teams in the last game was 3 to 2. Manchester United temporarily leads the total score and also holds a goal difference. The advantage, and three away goals. If Roma wants to advance, then at least get a 2-0 result. In the Red Devils' home court, it is not easy to get this result."

"Today Manchester United sent a full main lineup, the starting lineup is not much different from the previous game. 4-4-2 formation: the goalkeeper is De Gea; the defense is Van Dijk and Coulibaly partnering the central defender combination, left and right It's Alonso and Valencia; the midfielder is Kante and Nainggolan, Mahrez and De Bruyne one left and one right; the striker is the combination of Lewandowski and Griezmann. The substitute player is Rome Ronaldo, Kimmich, Lampard, Kroos, Fekir, Martial, Dybala."

"The only change is that Nainggolan replaced Lampard in the starting lineup. Removing Lampard, who has a stronger offensive ability, and replacing Nainggolan with a stronger defensive ability, it seems that Kintag is ready for this game. Defense is the main thing. But this is normal, after all, Manchester United now has the initiative, and they can play a little more conservatively in this game."

"Today Roma still has a 4-3-3 formation: the goalkeeper is Alisson; the four defenders are Digne, Rudiger, Bailly and Florenzi; the three midfielders are De Rossi, Totti and Pitt. Janic; the three forwards are Shalawi, Dzeko and Salah. The substitutes are De Sanctis, Perotti, Wankel, Keita, Maicon, Falco and Dzukanovic .”

"Spalletti finally put Totti in the starting lineup today. The relationship between the two generals has not been good. This game also abandoned the past and fought together."

"The referee's whistle sounds and the game begins!"

"Rome kicked off first in this game! They are still the same as the previous game. They bombarded Manchester United's goal at the beginning, trying to take the lead first."

"However, in this game, it was obvious that Manchester United had prepared in advance, so they withstood Roma's attack."

"With Nainggolan on the field today, the combination of him and Kante's midfielder is indestructible, cutting off Roma's defense from the midfield."

"It seems that it will be more difficult for Roma to break through Manchester United in this game."

The game has been going on for more than 20 minutes, and Rome still has no achievements.Spalletti hated his teeth from the side: Jin Taige, Jin Taige, you play so conservatively at home, aren't you afraid of the fans' scolding?

But Jin Taige didn't care so much.For him, if he makes a mistake and does not enter the Champions League semi-finals, he will be scolded.

In this game, Jin Taige was very relieved to let the team play steadily.Lampard's physical condition has been very poor recently, and he will be needed in many important games in the future, so Kintag must let him get enough rest.As for the candidate to replace him, Jin Taige finally chose the beast waist Nainggolan.

On the one hand, because of his strong defensive ability, the midfielder partner with Kanter is almost invincible; on the other hand, he has played in Serie A and is very familiar with Roma, and he also has some advantages when playing.

Therefore, in this game, Kintag entrusted Nainggolan with a heavy responsibility, allowing him to take advantage of his physical strength and make due contributions on both offense and defense.

Under the defense of Nainggolan, Manchester United did not have any temper in defending Roma. A breakthrough by Salah on the wing was directly shoveled to the ground by Nainggolan.Although Roma got a free kick on the right side of the front court, Salah was sorely shoveled by Nainggolan, and it took him a long time to move his ankle before he recovered.

Salah looked at Nainggolan resentfully: "Are you so cruel to me?"

Nainggolan was expressionless, and he didn't mean to apologize at all: "We are brothers after the game, but now we are opponents. I will not show mercy. Even if I shovel you, I will not hesitate!"

"Did Van Dyke teach you this sentence! This infringer!"

The two chattered, and then rushed into the penalty area together, looking for their own opportunities.

Totti was about to take the penalty. He looked at the position of his teammates in the penalty area, and then kicked directly without hesitation, and even the run-up was very short!

This ball suddenly disrupted Manchester United's rhythm!
"Totti suddenly took the free throw! The ball went straight to the center of the penalty area!"

"De Gea didn't dare to attack easily, he was ready in front of the goal!"

"Header! Goal!"

"Roma broke United's goal! At the end of the first half, Roma pulled a goal back and they made it 3-3 on aggregate! They are only at an away goals disadvantage now!"

"Let's see who scored the goal just now... It's Bailey! It's Bailey's header!"

"This is so dramatic! In the last round, Salah's goal kept Roma's hope of advancing, and today Bailey helped Roma equalize with a header. Is it really possible for Manchester United to be loaned out by ourselves? Are the players eliminated?"

"The first half is over! Roma returned to the locker room with high morale! They seem to have found their own rhythm!"

"The suspense of this game is renewed!"

In the locker room of the visiting team, Spalletti yelled at the players: "Your offense wasn't strong enough in the first half! Continue in the second half!"

In the locker room of the home team, the Manchester United players were a little silent, they were still silent in the conceded goal just now.

Before the game, they had a two-goal advantage, which reassured them, but now the advantage is only one goal, and Roma is playing more and more smoothly, and it is even more dangerous to hold this one goal in the second half of the game.

Jin Taige looked at the frustrated faces of the players, and he smiled: "Guys, what's the matter with you? It seems that we are ahead now, right? Why do you seem to be eliminated soon?"

"Come on, guys! The situation is very favorable to us now, after all, we still have the upper hand. Now that the game is tied, let's let the score lead again!"

Kintag looked at Nainggolan: "Radega, you did a good job defensively in the first half of the game, but you seem to have forgotten that I also asked you to take on the offensive task. After the start of the second half, I hope to be able to play in Rome. I see you more in the first half, I hope you can help the team score goals and let the situation on the field continue to develop in a direction that is beneficial to us!"

After listening to Kintag's words, Nainggolan looked at him firmly, then nodded: "Boss, don't worry, in the second half I will definitely increase my offensive range and help the team score goals!"
